FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention is related to a support and more particularly to a display panel mount bracket. Spaces between each angle adjustment set can be mobile adjusted without limiting by conditions of the wall, as well as the sandwiched angle of the display and the wall can be adjusted by a stepless way to provide users an optimum angle of view.

BACKGROUND

By the vigorous development of electronic technology, the manufacturing technology of thin display is also increasingly mature and gradually replaces traditional CRT displays. Furthermore, thickness of frames thereof is lighter and thinner than the traditional CRT displays, it thus becomes one of decorations in living lives. The arranged position relates to visual effect of indoor arrangements. However, in addition to the decorating effect, an angle of pitch thereof is also an important subject. By the difference of heights and posture habits of users, there are different optimum angles of views. Therefore, it depends on the display panel mount bracket to be convenient to achieve a visual effect and an optimum watching effect of the thin display by adjusting an optimum angle of view anytime for users when arranging the thin display.

Please refer to FIG. 1 for general prior art thin television supports. Main structure of the thin television support 10 comprises: a plurality of connection base 11 for connecting to a thin television 19 at an end face of a main body 111 and extending outwardly to a root 112 at the other opposite face, a plurality of adjusting grooves 113 arranged spaced apart at a bottom face of the root 112; a plurality of fixed bases 13 locked on a wall for each connection base 11 to insert into and being sheets with a cross section of C shape, an upper and lower face of the fixed base 13 set to a first face 131, the one toward to the connection base being a second face 132, a frame hole 133 arranged on the first face 131, a hanging hole 134 dug at a common border of the second face 132 and the first face 131 and connected with the frame hole 133, a top edge of the second face 132 being for the adjustment grooves 113 to insert and locate. Of course, a protection part 15 is set at a lower part of the connection base 11. The protection part 15 can swing with respect to the connection base 11 to prevent the thin television 19 from disengaging with the fixed base 13 and falling accidentally.

Then, please simultaneously refer to FIG. 2A and FIG. 2B, respectively end views of the prior art thin television support 10 from a first angle and a second angle. As shown, every time when a user wants to adjust looking up and stooping down angle of view of the thin television 19, the user must lift the whole heavy thin television 19 to make the adjustment groove 113 of the connection base 11 to disengage from the fixed base 13. At present, the thin television 19 is defended and supported by a defending bar 17 connected to the root 112 from falling. Although the structure is simple, there are still following shortcomings existed in use practically:

-   -   1. When the user operates the adjustment of the angle of view,         he/she usually directly faces to the thin television 19, thus         he/she cannot see whether the adjustment groove 113 at the rear         of the thin television 19 has been inserted into the fixed base         13 and has to try many times. Even a third party is needed to         help such that it lacks of convenience in operation.     -   2. With respect to the connection base 11, the hanging hole 134         of the fixed base 13 is too roomy. Even after adjusting the         angle of pitch, the thin television 19 can still slide         laterally. For the whole, the design lacks of stability and         safety.     -   3. The adjustment slot 113 is arranged and designed spaced with         same distance such that the thin television 19 can only use         predetermined angles to adjust, i.e. no stepless adjustment, and         cannot meet requirements of each user.
